December Weather Averages

Sorted by popularity:

Weather lowdown

Although December is the first month of winter in Sharm el-Sheikh, the daily weather remains reliably dry and sunny and rather warm. Daytime temperatures rise to an average maximum of 23°C, and fall to an average minimum of 15°C overnight, and are combined with generally low humidity, making December a good time of year to visit for tourists who are most comfortable with moderate warmth rather than heat. Temperatures rarely fluctuate by more than a few degrees either side of the long-term average, and the long-term averages thus give a good indication of what tourists can expect during a typical holiday.

Rainfall is rare during December- the mean monthly rainfall is less than 1mm, and on average there are only 0.3 days with measurable rainfall, meaning that many Novembers pass by without any measurable rain. There are 248 hours of bright sunshine during an average November which is equivalent to 8 hours of sunshine per day. Sea temperatures fall back to around 24°C during a typical December, but this is still easily warm enough to support underwater activities.

There are usually no weather hazards around at this time of year, although on the very rare occasions that rain is encountered, it can potentially cause flash flooding due to the arid nature of the region.
